A family member of one of Northern Manitoba's own is asking for the community's help.

It has been announced that beloved local player and hometown product Isaac Tomchak has recently been diagnosed with Severe Aplastic Anemia (SAA), a rare blood disorder that causes bone marrow to stop producing enough new blood cells and platelets .

A relative of Isaac has created a GoFundMe campaign, with 100% of the funds going toward supporting Isaac and his family throughout his road to recovery.

Everyone at Arctic Radio wishes Isaac and his family all the best during this difficult time. The GoFundMe link can be found on our official Facebook page.
